    Use the distributive property to express 40 + 64

    Distributive property is a (b+c)

    We need to express 40+64 in a (b+c) form

    First we write the numbers using greatest common factor

    40 and 64 are divisible by 2 or 4 or 8

    Greatest common factor is 8

    40 can be written as 8 * 5

    64 can be written as 8*8

    40 + 64 = (8*5) + (8 * 8)

    Now we take out 8 that is in common

    (8*5) + (8 * 8) = 8 (5 + 8)

    8 (5 + 8) is the distributive property to express 40 + 64
